Yeah keep followin' me

Keep callin' me

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah

Aye believe in God like the sun up in the sky

Science can tell us how it can't tell us why but

I seen a baby cry then seconds later she laughs

The beauty of life the pain never lasts

The rain always pass the sun don't always shine yeah

When it's gone I'm lonely but when it's there I'm fine

I hate the wintertime because the nights come quicker

The light make them whites think I'm a nice young nigga

But at night they think twice and walk a little faster

It's funny hundred years ago I'd have called this nigga "Master"

How the tables turn but still the fire burnin' uh

I feel the heat the world is a dryer turnin'

Turnin' I'm lookin' for some higher learnin'

Learnin' girl you what I desire yearnin'

Yearnin' you say I'm easily distracted

I think the problem is I'm easily attracted by the dark side

The temptation got me questionin' where my heart lies

I'm tryna separate myself like apartheid

But aye the liquor keep swallowin'

I swear I walk with God but the devil keep followin'

Followin' I say the devil keep followin'

Followin' I say the devil keep followin'

Followin' I say the devil keep followin'

Uh

Feel like I'm ridin' on a chartered plane of broken-hearted pain

Turbulence is constant my pilot has gone insane

If I can find a parachute to parasail

Maybe these parasites of paranoia won't prevail

Character ** as hell

But where is my parallel sweetheart?

Deep thoughts lost in my brain so I sleep hard nights with no progress

Mane I'm thinkin' like I'll probably find a Loch Ness in the projects

Before I find this

Object of my love this object of my heart

Guitar strings is strum in search of my counterpart

Bound to start drinkin' and smokin' sink in this ocean

Leapin' through the badness hopin' I'm reachin' for closeness

Feel like the devil keep followin' me

Feel like the devil keep followin' me

Uh
